Windows Question about YYC compiler

Before you compile with YYC you have to download visual studio.

I am wondering if other users playing the game also would have to download anything to run the game or will it work as perfectly as with VM builds? Target platform is windows.

Thanks.

The YYC uses some of the build tools from VS but that does not translate into the user having download anything themselves. All the YYC does is use LLVM to create a more optimised executable package which will run without the need for any extra components to be downloaded (just as a VM package does).
